The Hotel Warner
West Chester|0.25km from Éclat Chocolate
I stayed at Hotel Warner with my teenage son. We were in town for the 2023 Penn Fusion Soccer tournament. Hotel Warner is nestled in the heart of adorable downtown West Chester. The grand staircase in the lobby and black-and-white oversized mural immediately remind you, you’re indeed staying in a theater turned boutique hotel - and if that’s not enough, warm butter lingers in the air thanks to the FREE popcorn in the lobby. The individual packed bags of the salty treat are a must-munch on a cold afternoon, at least my son thought so, after playing soccer in 27 degree weather. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. The restaurant discount program is a bonus but the real perk is having staff at the front desk who were able to recommend a nice meal, that was only a block and change away. Also, my son has Celiac Disease and the 2 restaurants we visited, Barnaby’s and Sedona both offered SAFE GLUTEN FREE FOOD. Again, the location is everything. Once we parked in the garage across the street (yes Hotel Warner validated parking there) we didn’t need to drive anywhere. Food, culture, even a Rite-Aid is all within reach - not to mention the soccer fields were under 15 minutes away - one was just a 4 minute drive - score. And because it was a tournament weekend, my son took advantage of the hotel’s small gym and pool to workout and recover. The room was spotless and featured pillows that felt like clouds. The breakfast buffet, included with the stay - served hot coffee and even had almond milk on hand! Eggs, sausage, fruit, pastries, yogurt, cereal was the perfect start to my son’s game day (he loved the chocolate milk!) The hotel bar plays black and white movies and serves up tasty cocktails soccer moms will love. Snacks, water/soda and beer is available for purchase in the lobby too. Twizzlers anyone? This was hands down my favorite soccer trip thanks to Hotel Warner and we’ll be back. Also it’s a stone’s throw from Philly! So I highly recommend it to anyone in the city of brotherly love who needs a taste of the quaint and cozy ‘burbs.
